About this trial

The primary objective of this trial is to investigate whether the addition of 3 additional neo-adjuvant cycles of chemotherapy (doxorubicin based chemotherapy) to standard management according to the ISG-STS 10-01 study (3 cycles of neoadjuvant doxorubicin based chemotherapy + surgery +/- radiotherapy) improves the outcome of high-risk CINSARC patients with resectable soft-tissue sarcoma (STS). Primary endpoint is metastatic progression-free survival (M-PFS, after 3 years of follow-up).

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Doxorubicin

    Drug

    A treatment cycle consists of 3 weeks. Doxorubicin will be administered from day 1 to day 3 (60 or 75mg/m² day or 20 or 25 mg/m² per day), repeated every 3 weeks, up to 3 cycles.

  • Ifosfamide or dacarbazine

    Drug

    A treatment cycle consists of 3 weeks. Treatment may continue up to 3 cycles. Ifosfamide will be administered from day 1 to day 3 (7,5-9 g/m² over 3 days with mesna and G-CSF) or dacarbazine (100 mg/m² 1 day or 450 mg/m² 2 days) as per local practices, repeated every 3 weeks, up to 3 cycles.

  • Doxorubicin

    Drug

    A treatment cycle consists of 3 weeks. Doxorubicin will be administered from day 1 to day 3 (60 or 75mg/m² day or 20 or 25 mg/m² per day), repeated every 3 weeks, up to 6 cycles.

  • Ifosfamide or dacarbazine

    Drug

    A treatment cycle consists of 3 weeks. Ifosfamide will be administered from day 1 to day 3 (7,5-9 g/m² over 3 days with mesna and G-CSF) or dacarbazine (100 mg/m² 1 day or 450 mg/m² 2 days) as per local practices, repeated every 3 weeks, up to 6 cycles.
